U Bolt Coating

Pipes running through refineries, chemical plants and offshore platforms are rested on, or secured to, a structural beam support member using U-bolts. Over time the contact area between the un-coated U-bolts and pipe erodes and starts deteriorating the material in the presence of moisture. This excessive corrosion at the pipe support point is the leading cause of process pipe failure and it eventually develops into pinhole leaks.

Features & benefits :

High resistance to impact & abrasion.

Smooth, durable and shrunk over the shank of the U-bolt without any wrinkles, thereby helps reduce the risk of cracking the paint film around the pipe as the bolt is torqued down.

The polyolefin material provides the right combination of hardness and durability to protect the pipe paint but avoids setting up a capillary crevice around the circumference of the pipe.
